I don't make the huge bucks, but I could see from a mile away that this was a two-inning save situation for Bautista. This is one of the games that you can't lose. It's a two-game swing, but more importantly, it can make you lose tomorrow again, and beyond. 

I have a feeling we will not see FB til bottom 10, if we see him. Apparently Hyde doesn't want him for two today and that shouldn't change just because they tied it. We will see.

the walks are on Fujinami but he pitched himself out of it to a 5-4 lead, Mateo though had that big hit is suppose to make that play 10 times out of 10 if your keeping a barely .200 hitter on the roster he better be a gold glove. especially when you have the likes of Ortiz in the AAA who can easily match Mateos bat and glove and has upside to be way way better 

He had no business being in that position in the first place

The Cardinals have traded away Arozarena, Alcantara, Zac Gallen, Lane Thomas and a couple other notable guys that I can’t think of right now.  And we still bitch about Mike Yaz around here. 

If we traded away Arozarena, Alcantara, Gallen, Thomas and others, I’m sure there’d be incessant bitching here, too.

    • I’d go even farther. I’m not trading any of top 4 prospects including Kjerstad. I would not trade Cowser as well. We still have a large amount of depth in the system. A trade example would be Stowers, Norby, Liranzo, Forret, Elvin Garcia. That is plenty to get a number 2/3 starter. 
    • Ugh I hope not. Please move on from players that were brought in originally to tank     unless you do this to replace Mcdermott at AAA
    • Here’s another list from “the other guys”. It doesn’t appear Holliday is eligible here, just an FYI: Os have 4 on this list including Estrada and Etzel.
    • I don’t.  He passed rookie eligibility two years ago.   
    • I think Fangraphs decides who’s eligible as of the start of the season.  Unlike other publications that release all their team lists at the same time, Fangraphs slow rolls theirs over a 6 month period or so.   Therefore, to put all the teams on the same footing, they base eligibility as of the start of the season.   
    • Clearly he has a roster spot for a playoff series with the Yankees….
    • My stance would be pretty simple. Im not trading any of the top 3 prospects and im not trading any of the young talent that is controlled long term that is currently on the ML roster. That means besides the very obvious guys that players like Cowser and Kjerstad are also off the board. Now, if a player like Skubal becomes available, that could cause me to change my mind but as I look around at the reported available players, I don’t see anyone worth a top 20 prospect or young contributing ML talent. Guys like Norby and Stowers fall into that latter category but they aren’t here right now and they are just redundant on our roster. So I’m telling teams if you want to deal with us, guys like Norby, Stowers and Beavers are who will lead deals and that several vets, led by Mountcastle, are also on the board in any potential contender/contender(fringe contender) type deal. I think whether it’s Fedde or relievers like Estevez or Nardi or Garcia or even Scott, I think we have enough to get deals done without trading any of the guys we would rather not lose. This is all to say that I just don’t see that proven elite high end talent available this deadline to justify trading any of those top guys.
